What part of the lp stack actually uses apache? I suspect it's only ipp, mod_ipp specifically, and that the rest of the lp stack has no dependency at all. I would be perfectly happy to see all the ipp stuff ripped out (I've never used it, and my understanding is that CUPS provides a much better implementation anyway) especially if it allows us to eradicate apache-13. However., I'm not sure that this extends to the rest of the legacy lp stack.
The argument that legacy stuff could simply be dropped off to one side in a legacy repo would be far stronger if we actually had such a repo in place. I regard creating that infrastructure as a necessary prerequisite to any significant pruning of the codebase. (Although I'm not sure it needs a full-blown repo. Tarballs of the source that's ripped out, placed in a well-known location, ought to be adequate.) On Tue, May 6, 2014 at 3:07 PM, Garrett D'Amore <[email protected] > wrote: > I'd love to see it go.
